Muzzle Training and Tips are the only ones who have a full and accurate size, measurement and weight chart for these muzzles. Most companies use a wildly inaccurate or incomplete chart, which is unfair to customers who should know exactly what they are purchasing.

• Unfortunately we do not have the full measurements on these muzzles yet.

Make & Material

Greyhound muzzles come in all shapes, colours, materials, and sometimes sizes (though still limited to certain types).

Muzzles like Birdwell, don pare and some TMS sizes are the largest greyhound style muzzles you can get. They are made from either hard plastic or a softer silicone. These usually have stool guards to fit as they are considered a 'kennel' muzzle, not a racing muzzle. The lightweight racing muzzles you see usually are wire or flexible/lightweight plastic like pictured. They prevent nipping whilst running but are not usually an excellent choice for more determined biters.

​

Most muzzles you find will be plastic/wire with either PVC, wire or nylon straps. Sometimes, the straps will be too small for normal-sized dogs, but the basket will fit, requiring some strap mods.

GREY AUS

Made from a softer plastic, the second option is a hard/strong plastic.

Our Super 5 Wire Muzzles are meticulously handmade from high quality spring tempered, stainless steel wire and soldered with 34% silver content solder on all crossover points. This makes the solder points as strong as the wire itself giving it a very high tensile strength of 28.
